Angelina Ballerina: Musical Moves is another fun DVD that Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment just put out. All of the episodes are fun with nice messages. If you have a little dancer in your family, they are sure to love this DVD! My two little dancers are picking up Angelina's moves and ditching mine :) I really love how just watching one episode encourages my kids to sing and dance for a good part of the day....even if they aren't doing my robot move :):)

DVD Synopsis:Move to the music with Angelina Ballerina and her friends as they explore the wonderful world of dance! Gracie loses herself to some disco grooves while Alice discovers the power of confidence through jazz! AZ hip-hops to a happy-birthday beat and Ms. Mimi takes her students on a modern dance journey. Angelina shows that friendship —like dance — is special, and best built one step at a time!

I have a beautiful niece staying with me for a month. She is sensitive to gluten and this has helped me explore areas I have wanted to venture into. Since her arrival, we've had gluten-free pancakes, gluten-free cookies and found some delicious gluten-free breads. I had also promised a friend I would attempt to find a good protein muffin that her kids could easily take and eat in the car if necessary when rushing off to school. I'm not exactly certain how much protein in a muffin constitutes a "protein muffin" but here is my latest.

I came across a banana-Quinoa muffin recipe on the back of an Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes box.
